Drinking To Cry

Walking
and
stumbling

drunk
and
disorderly

crying
and
laughing

this is his fault
everything
all of it

I drink to release my emotions
otherwise tears would never fall
to strong and angry for that

something about the booze
gets my tears ducts working
armor that guards my sadness is weakened temporarily

allowing the exit of these old wounds
allowing the anger to subside momentarily
sadness is a welcome guest at this party

tears fall, the hurricane of my soul released
downing a bit more drink
I need this mental storm to rain it all out

Walking
and
stumbling

drunk
and
disorderly

crying
and
laughing
